[Hamlib-developer] Problems with MarkV backend in 1.2.7

[Justin B. <zo...@jt...>]

Hi all,

1.2.7 is broken for me when using the MarkV backend (104).  Previous 
versions (1.2.6.2) worked just fine for status but failed to put the rig 
into PTT.  I got a nice reply from Glenn that this was fixed in 1.2.7. 
I upgraded by manually compiling 1.2.7 waiting for the dpkg to come out 
from Debian.  Testing things out, I discovered asking for the current 
frequency with rigctl puts the rig into transmit and makes further 
communication with the rig impossible.

I removed the 1.2.7 localy compiled version from my home directory and 
ran with the 1.2.6.2 debian package.  Once the 1.2.7 package came out I 
tried it out thinking I might have screwed up the compile somehow.  I 
still get the same results.  The upside is now I can switch between 
versions easily :)

I've attached a rigctl log from each version.  1.2.6.2 works just fine 
with the exception of PTT.  1.2.7 puts the rig into transmit right after 
the frequency status request.

I hope we can get this resolved, I would love to get active on PSK with 
this new (for me) rig :)

73 and thanks,
